EPA advisor admits the agency is funneling billions to climate groups ahead of Trump’s return to White House
- EPA special advisor Brent Efron reveals the agency is hurriedly distributing billions in grants to climate-focused nonprofits to secure funding from Biden’s climate agenda before a potential Republican takeover.
- The motive behind this funding spree appears to be safeguarding climate programs from potential Republican scrutiny rather than genuinely addressing climate change.
- Efron admits these grants could provide personal opportunities, such as employment with funded nonprofits, after his tenure.
- Some experts suggest that Trump’s impact on climate regulations could be limited; states and localities are expected to maintain climate action momentum even in the face of federal inaction.
- Despite the changing political climate, proponents believe the transition to clean energy is irreversible, driven by state initiatives and bipartisan support from various stakeholders.
The Environmental Protection Agency‘s (EPA) Brent Efron, a special advisor implementing Biden’s climate agenda, told Project Veritas that the agency is frantically shoveling billions in grants to nonprofits, making sure that outgoing President Joe Biden’s administration’s climate projects stay afloat – no matter who’s in charge.
At a time that President-elect Donald Trump readies to take office, EPA employees are scrambling to distribute funding for their favored climate change initiatives. According to a current staffer, the morale is at an all-time low at EPA. (Related: EPA advisor admits panic-funneling billions to climate organizations ahead of Trump presidency).
In a shocking video released by Project Veritas, Efron appears to confirm what many have long suspected – taxpayer money is being shoveled out the door with reckless abandon, all in the name of climate policy.
This suggests that the real motive is not saving the planet, but safeguarding their funding from potential Republican oversight.
“We’re throwing gold bars off the Titanic. We’re getting the money out,” the EPA employee said, noting that the agency’s current spending spree is less about strategic investments and more about ensuring the funds are locked into programs that future administrations can’t reverse.
Efron openly admits how the EPA uses nonprofits as a political buffer against Republican administrations and reveals how he could later reap personal rewards with a cushy job at one of the nonprofits he helped fund during his tenure. “Over the last year we’ve given out $50 billion for climate things … so to go work for one of these places would be really cool,” Efron said.
Former EPA administrator: Shift to clean energy is unstoppable
“If Trump does target the climate law, there are provisions that are likely safe. One is a credit for companies in advanced manufacturing because it is perceived as America first and pro-U.S. business,” said David Shepheard, partner and energy expert at the global consultant Baringa. Incentives for electric vehicles are likely most at risk, he added.
Scott Segal, head of a communications group at the law firm Bracewell LLP, which represents the energy industry, said the climate law is not likely to be repealed.
Dan Jasper, a senior policy advisor at Project Drawdown, said repealing parts of the climate law could backfire because most of the investments and jobs are in Republican congressional districts.
Stanford University climate scientist Rob Jackson, who chairs the Global Carbon Project, a group of scientists that tracks countries’ carbon dioxide emissions, said the United States has been reducing carbon dioxide emissions primarily by replacing coal-fired power plants with clean, renewable power.
“I hope that we don’t lose sight of the benefits of clean energy,” he said. “It’s not just about the climate. It’s about our lives and our health.”
Critics of climate alarmism have noticed that Trump has softened his rhetoric in recent months after Tesla CEO Elon Musk endorsed him and campaigned heavily for his election.
Trump, who has viewed climate change as a “hoax,” has said he will also eliminate regulations by the Biden administration to increase the energy efficiency of lightbulbs, stoves, dishwashers and shower heads.
Dan Jasper, a senior policy advisor at Project Drawdown, said climate action will continue to move forward at the state and local level.
Zara Ahmed, who leads policy analysis and science strategy at Carbon Direct, agreed. While there may be an abdication of leadership at the federal level on climate, she’s optimistic that states including California will continue to lead.
“No matter what Trump may say, the shift to clean energy is unstoppable and our country is not turning back,” said Gina McCarthy, a former EPA administrator. Advocates for clean energy are bipartisan, well-organized “and fully prepared to deliver climate solutions, boost local economies and drive climate ambition.”
